New model options for UK customers have seen a surge in orders for Ilesbus, which has also announced further expansion.
Ilesbus UK Ltd has launched a new PSVAR-compliant midi coach, based on the Iveco Daily 17c21 with a 210bhp engine. The new model is named the Ilesbus Glance and standard features include LED headlights, automatic handbrake, Telma retarder, rear air suspension and in-dash air-conditioning.
The exterior incorporates Ilesbus’ distinctive styling and features a large entry door and LED destination boards to the front, side and rear. A door on the nearside opens to reveal the fully automatic wheelchair lift. Luggage space has also been retained with a good size rear boot and the addition of full-length side lockers on both sides of the vehicle.
The interior is well appointed, with full size reclining seats, large panoramic windows, special lighting features, 14kW air-conditioning, heating, TV with DVD and more.
Seven days after the launch, Ilesbus has already taken orders for a total of six vehicles. These orders are made up of Anderson Travel of London, which is taking three; Johnson Bros. which is taking two; and BWS Peris of Llanberis North Wales, who will take one vehicle.
Gary Johns, Sales Director of Ilesbus UK Ltd told CBW: “I would like to thank each customer for their orders. We currently have a demonstration vehicle available – please call 01656 670050 for further details on how to view the new model.”
Additionally, the company has announced that it has appointed J J Kavanagh & Sons Bus and Coach Sales of Urlingford, Kilkenny as its agents for the whole product range in Ireland and Northern Ireland.
